2004: PANINI'S RAMPAGE REVIVAL

This is a flash from the - ahem - recent past… although the title will be familiar to long-time readers of MARVEL UK… and, indeed, STARLOGGED…

Not content with reviving THE MIGHTY WORLD OF MARVEL… Panini went back into the archives and dusted-off RAMPAGE as well.

Of course, tastes change so this combined Marvel Superhero comic strip fare (all, I believe, created specifically for this title… in the days before the Disney edict that ended licensors originating their own material) with superficial "lifestyle features" pitched at the target audience.

I didn't follow this on a regular basis although I know it was rebooted as, I believe, a monthly… and then cancelled a few issues later.

SLOW ROBOT

Welcome to STARLOGGED!
It's a repository, and celebration, of Geek Media (mostly print) from the 'Star Age': that pre-millennial period between, roughly, 1972 (the opening of Marvel UK) and 1999 (the release of The Phantom Menace... and the end of innocence). But, of course, we'll bend the rules when we want to.
I only reproduce long out-of-print items for historical reference. I don't include anything that's currently in-print, is likely to be reprinted or otherwise commercially exploited by the copyright holder.
